"The Expositor's Bible: The Acts of the Apostles, Vol. 2" by George Thomas Stokes is a religious commentary written in the late 19th century. This volume serves as an exposition of the latter chapters of the Acts of the Apostles, particularly focusing on the life and ministry of St. Paul. Stokes aims to provide readers with insight into the early Christian church's development through a detailed analysis of key events and figures, emphasizing St. Paul's significant role. The opening of the volume presents a preface where the author outlines the structure and focus of the commentary. Stokes explains his intention to briefly discuss the latter chapters, which primarily center on St. Paul's activities after his conversion, as compared to the earlier chapters that cover a broader timeline of the early Church's establishment. He references various scholarly theories about St. Paul and introduces significant themes that will be explored, such as the Apostle's conversion, his education under Gamaliel, and the socio-political context of his missionary efforts. This sets the stage for in-depth chapters that will analyze specific events in St. Paul's life and their implications for the development of Christianity.
